Night procession at a temple entrance. A man in saffron robes stands centre, wearing a large garland of red and white flowers, with a ceremonial umbrella held over him by a man in white. Several saffron-robed monks and men in white and yellow-scarved devotees walk around him along a concrete path, with a colourful temple shrine visible at left.

Night procession on a dirt path with a red and multicoloured tasselled umbrella overhead. A tall figure with long swept-back dark hair, an orange turban, orange robe and a long rudraksha mala walks at centre-right, a person by appearance, with several cues present. A bald elderly man in a plain saffron wrap is held by the arm, and a saffron-robed man with gold chains walks at the front left. Attendants in white dhotis and orange shawls, one holding a red umbrella pole, flank the group, and a trident is visible among the crowd. A white flower garland is at the lower left edge.

Night procession at a temple courtyard. A smiling young man with long swept-back hair, wearing an orange saffron robe and a long white and red flower garland, walks forward between umbrella-bearers. Behind him, men in orange robes and white-clad attendants carry multicoloured embroidered umbrellas, one with a blue dove emblem. A woman in white holds a brass tray with fruit and offerings. Oil lamps line the path and a lit stone structure with a deity murti stands in the background. Several spectators watch from the left.

Night procession of saffron-robed sannyasis walking on a sandy path beneath colourful decorated umbrellas with fringed tassels, one reading Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam. A tall figure in an orange turban and orange robe with rudraksha mala smiles at centre-left. Beside him an elderly man in pale peach robes wears a white and pink flower garland. Next is a figure in orange with long grey hair, bead malas and a ceremonial necklace, and at right a bearded man in orange robes. Devotees in white and orange stand behind, with a banner visible at upper left.

Outdoor procession on a dirt path with orange-robed devotees. In the centre, a man in saffron robes wears a long multicoloured flower garland and walks barefoot beneath a large multicoloured ceremonial umbrella with gold finial. Two attendants in saffron carry tall gold-topped staffs beside him, and one wears a gold-bead necklace. Behind them, people in white and orange walk along, and a man in a black shirt stands at the left. A bystander with long dark hair and a gold-bead mala is at the right edge. Trees and a plain sky form the background.

Outdoor photo of a procession walking along a pale concrete path beside a red metal railing and a tree. In front, a man in saffron-orange robes with a brown shawl and a rudraksha mala walks at the left. At centre, a long-haired figure in orange robes wears a white and orange flower garland and a gold necklace and carries a leopard-print cloth over the arm. Behind him an ornate multicoloured parasol with fringe and a gold staff are carried, and a man in white with a yellow scarf follows. On the right, a bearded man in orange robes with a red-bordered dhoti walks. Swamiji (probable): the centre figure has long swept-back hair, saffron robes, a gold necklace and a floral garland, consistent with the page's claim, so this is an in_person appearance-based candidate. A bell hangs at the top left.
